1. PROGRAM OVERVIEW
As one of the leading universities in training in the field of Chemistry, USTH continues to affirm our position with a double Bachelor’s degree program in cooperation with prestigious French universities of the USTH Consortium.
Designed to ensure its selective focus and updating of scientific learning content as well as modern teaching methods, the program emphasizes the practice of critical thinking, self-learning, and practical skills. It provides the foundation knowledge of chemical science, and its current and future applications such as energy conversion and storage (Li-ion batteries, solar cells, fuel cells, and artificial leaves), smart materials (biodegradable polymers, targeted drugs), environmental analysis, and treatment, development of functional foods, cosmetics, spices, etc. Specifically, the program focuses on equipping students with the ability to access, practice, and exploit the most modern analytical equipment currently used in research, technology development, and industrial production in Vietnam.
The double bachelor’s program in Chemistry consists of 180 ECTS. In the first two years, students will study at USTH with the teaching by USTH lecturers (100% are Ph.D. holders). In the final year, they will transfer to our partner university to complete their study. Students can choose to study at 1 of 4 French universities: University of Aix-Marseille, University of Paris-Est Créteil (UPEC), Universidad Reims Champagne-Ardenne, and University of Lille. Upon graduation, students will be granted two degrees, one by USTH and one by their chosen French university.
The program is expected to bring more opportunities for Vietnamese students who are passionate about Chemistry & Chemical Technology and would like to pursue their studies in France, helping them to have better preparation for future careers in a dynamic and international learning environment in Vietnam and France.
